    With a bit of uncertainty over who will be first choice southampton keeper Im thinking of going with Boruc 4.5 and Davis 4.0. Basically 8.5 for the southampton goalie for the first 3 games wba A Sun H Nor A. Anyone any opinions on this.

    hmm...interesting tactic.

    i think i'll go with mignolet myself and a non playing 4.0 keeper costing me 9.5. can't for the life of me see mignolet not playing unless injured and hopefully as the season progresses one of the 4.0 keepers become active and i can throw him in as a back up for if mignolet does get injured.

    but yeah for yourself, who is setting up for the first 3 weeks i'd go with that.

    Sturridge has said that hes good to go and he has closed doors game on tuesday to get match fit I think.

    But on the other hand aspas has plaeyd quite well on pre-season.

    I'm going with the tactic of Mignolet and a non playing 'keeper too.

    He'll be second choice behind Hazard for the spot on the left side .

    Really? I think he could start tbh - and if he does judging by his stats last year in Germany (took more shots than any other player) he could be a great pick. Has he played much pre season?

    Also, seeing as Bale hasn't played pre-season yet, what are the chances he start next weekend?

    Which pair will score more:
    Mirallas & Giroud or Walters/Snodgrass & Soldado.

    I'm not convinced about Everton/Mirallas. So far I've been a big supporter of Giroud but Soldado will be Tottenham's no. 1 goalscorer without any doubt.

    Mirallas got 2 assist today against Betis and he is oop

    According to FF Scout, Chester at 4m will be 1st choice. They seem to play with 3 at the back too

    I won't be touching United's defence with their start. If a lot of people wildcard after GW3 (international break) then I'll likely bring in a United defender or De Gea. If RVP is tearing it up he'll probably become a must have too.

    What about Collins of West Ham? I know he is 4.5 but they have a good run of fixtures to start the season

    no, 4.0 is all i have (the cost of going with RVP) so i need 1 4.0 defender.
    cheers anyway though.

    you have a strongish midfield, i wouldn't spent 6.5 on my 5th mid. if i were you i'd look more at the 5.0 bracket and use the 1.5 on your strikers or defence. there's decent value there, brady, koren, wanyama.

    post your full team if you get a chance. if you're sticking with the 6.5 mid though schneiderlin isn't a bad shout.
